Being disabled with foot pain daily, I did my research first before buying this and it had the best reviews overall, excepting the heater issue, but with the Amazon Return Policy I wasn't worried. This machine has everything you'd ever want in a foot massager like powerful bubbles, shiatsu balls for each foot, light therapy (don't know if it really helps), a waterfall for your foot top, and best of all, it fits my size 13 4E width men's feet! The heater will keep your water from growing completely cold, maintaining it at about 80-85 degrees, definitely not hot but better than nothing. It would be surprising if a manufacturer made a foot massager heater really all that hot, due to the potential liability issues, especially with children. So overall I'm very excited to own this and am not that concerned about the heater. I start the water at about 110 degrees which gives me a 30-45 minute soak, which is all I need. If you are a woman or just concerned about how your feet look, you'll really love this Conair FB-52 since it has all the pedicure attachments you could ever want. I don't even bother with them but now that I've been using this machine for 2 weeks now, I've noticed that all the dead skin and callouses are entirely gone from my feet, just in rubbing the dead skin off while drying after a soak. This machine comes highly recommended from this customer. It would be a great gift for the woman who has everything, and especially helpful for pregnancy foot pain issues at the end of the day. Overall: Great buy for $40 on a product that will get used.

Unit works well with the blue lights, waterfall, and pumice stone. It's not quite a portable spa, but it is better than a plastic tub with hot water. The instructions say that the heat should last about 20 minutes and it does.
What you should know is that this machine does not heat cold water. You have to put in hot water, about 110 degrees, and the machine will slightly heat the water, but not much. With the bubbles, waterfall, and everything running the temperature drops sharply within about 15 minutes.
If you want a relaxing foot soak with passive massagers, bubbles, and a waterfall, this unit is perfect.
Don't expect too much, though, from a $40 product. Was I happy to have purchased it? Yes. It does everything I want and came at a bargain.
I'll knock it down one star because the marketing builds it up to be more than it is.
Best Deals on Conair Waterfall Foot Spa with Lights, Bubbles, and Heat
Based on documentation the heater is intended to "maintain temperature of warm water"
First use hinted that it wasn't doing the job, so I ran some tests with a digital thermometer. Hot tap water with the unit not plugged in lost 10-11 degrees in 10 minutes.
Same test with the heat/bubbles ON showed a drop of 28 degrees in 10 minutes. Another test with heat/bubbles plus waterfall shoed a drop of 31 degrees in 10 minutes.
Conclusion: the heater is too feeble to keep up with heat loss from room air being mixed with the water (bubbles or bubbles plus waterfall).
We returned for a refund.
Honest reviews on Conair Waterfall Foot Spa with Lights, Bubbles, and Heat
this unit should be another 4 to five inches wider. It hurts around the ancle area because you have to sit tightly and straight instead of being relaxed!

I did a lot of product research before adding this particular model to my wish list, where my husband found and purchased it for me. I saw that it got very mixed reviews (as did pretty much all its competitors), but it seemed the best of the lot, and some of the negative comments might be chalked up to product misuse. Unfortunately I must now add mine to the others (I will be returning the product).
Pros:
Lots of bells and whistles. The lighting is pretty (although it serves no other function), and the waterfall is pleasant. While others have complained about excessive splashing, I did not find that to be the case on any setting when filled to the "max" fill line; it did splash out a few drops, but not enough to be any problem. I wonder if some of the complaints about splashing may have been due to over-filling. When the unit is filled to the "max" line, the water does not cover the foot, so it would seem natural to over-fill it. It has several attachments that look like they might have been useful had they been located somewhere accessible to the feet. The massaging rollers might be quite pleasant for someone with very small feet. Aside from the roller usage, the unit is plenty large enough for big feet (mine are size 10, and I believe the unit would even accommodate my husband's size 14 feet, albeit not with much room to move).
Cons:
The unit is horribly uncomfortable. Although I was sitting with my legs in as vertical a position as possible, the narrower width at the heel and straight sides of the unit means that it was quickly causing bruising above my ankles on either side. My feet are too large to make use of the massage rollers, so I removed them; both came out in pieces. The manual said that if the rollers are removed, the feet may be massaged on the gel insert; however, there was no other mention of a gel insert, nor was one included with my unit. The trough that had previously held the massage roller was sharp and painful with it removed.
Not recommended.
